Build

NIKKE goddess of victory harmony cube

Cube: Bastion. She only takes 1 second to reload in comparison to Scarlet, so you benefit more from the extra bullets.

OL Gear: You want 1 or 2 lines of max ammo capacity to offset her small magazine (20) by default. After that, focus on Elemental DMG and ATK. You can get crit lines as fillers. No need for hit rate since she already buffs herself on burst.


✅ Pros

  • Amazing buffs on her own. If you want a buffer for her, focus on damage taken or stuff she can’t get on her own
  • Good buffer for fire DPS on bosses and raids thanks to the skill 2 increasing damage to cores
  • Life leech on burst helps a lot with survivability if you are not running healers or just cover repair units
  • Life leech on burst procs skill 1 ATK buff. Her whole kit works on its own without any external buffers (this is good and bad)

❌ Cons

  • 20 bullets base magazine means you need to overload her or go with a fast reload team so she can keep dealing damage
  • You need buffers that don’t use the same buff types Asuka already have, limiting team compositions
